Mind you, there's the odd writer who can accomplish both of these
goals in the same piece, which is quite a tricky proposition at best.
I'm not one of them, so I rarely attempt and never distribute such
work, but I have considerable respect for those who can pull it off.

Well.  This's gotten way off topic.

Anyway, I personally wasn't offended by the picture... in fact, I
quite like it.  It's certainly not tasteless.  Not the sort of thing
I'll be hanging up in my office along with the various and sundry
other OMG pictures, but then, the office isn't the most liberal of
places.  :)

Then again, keep in mind I'm digging up the paperwork to start an
actual religion based on the picture's subject.  I can't wait to go to
City Hall tomorrow and start asking around... :)
